DESCRIPTION
-----------
Prepare each commit with its patch since <mine> head forked from
<his> head, one file per patch, for e-mail submission. Each
output file is numbered sequentially from 1, and uses the first
line of the commit message (massaged for pathname safety) as the
filename.
<his> head, one file per patch formatted to resemble UNIX mailbox
format, for e-mail submission or use with gitlink:git-am[1].
When -o is specified, output files are created in that
directory; otherwise in the current working directory.
Each output file is numbered sequentially from 1, and uses the
first line of the commit message (massaged for pathname safety)
as the filename.
When -o is specified, output files are created in <dir>; otherwise
they are created in the current working directory. This option
is ignored if --stdout is specified.
When -n is specified, instead of "[PATCH] Subject", the first
line is formatted as "[PATCH N/M] Subject", unless you have only
one patch.
When --mbox is specified, the output is formatted to resemble
UNIX mailbox format, and can be concatenated together for
processing with applymbox.
